We also want to continue to give our Heroes a sense of purpose and we still need you mentality. Our role has been to provide additional support through advocacy, education and promotion of their circumstances.In order for us to be able to meet this need more effectively we have formed a team of volunteer wounded Heroes to serve as caseworkers/mentors to offer much needed support, compassion and motivation to those who are currently struggling with their injuries both seen and unseen. These wounded Heroes have healed from their own difficult injuries and have learned to cope with issues like PTSD, TBI, medical issues and more and can provide peer support and guidance to those who need it.Event schedule and timesPACKET PICK-UP FOR PREREGISTRANTS, AND DAY OF RACE REGISTRATION BEGINS AT 7:45amAT WARMINSTER COMMUNITY PARKDAY OF RACE REGISTRATION IS $40
